The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature.
Ebda Persuna ma għandha tkun Rappreżentant li ma għalaqx l-Età ta ' ħamsa u għoxrin Sena, u li jkun ilu Seba' Snin Ċittadin ta 'l-Istati Uniti, u li m'għandux, meta jiġi elett, abitant ta' dak l-Istat li fih għandu jkun magħżul .	No Person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the Age of twenty five Years, and been seven Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.
Ir-rappreżentanti u t-Taxxi diretti għandhom jitqassmu fost id-diversi Stati li jistgħu jiġu inklużi f'din l-Unjoni, skond in-Numri rispettivi tagħhom, li għandhom jiġu ddeterminati billi jiżdiedu man-Numru sħiħ ta 'Persuni b'xejn, inklużi dawk marbuta mas-Servizz għal Terminu ta' Snin, u esklużi Indjani mhux intaxxati, tlieta minn ħamsa tal-Persuni l-oħra kollha. L-Enumerazzjoni attwali għandha ssir fi żmien tliet Snin wara l-ewwel Laqgħa tal-Kungress ta 'l-Istati Uniti, u f'kull Terminu sussegwenti ta' għaxar Snin, f'dawk il- Manjieri kif għandhom skond il-Liġi diretta. In-Numru ta 'Rappreżentanti ma għandux jaqbeż wieħed għal kull tletin Elf, iżda kull Stat għandu jkollu mill-Inqas Rappreżentant wieħed; u sakemm issir din l-enumerazzjoni, l-Istat ta 'New Hampshire għandu jkun intitolat għal chuse three, Massachusetts tmienja, Rhode-Island u Providence Plantations waħda, Connecticut ħamsa, New-York sitta, New Jersey erbgħa, Pennsylvania tmienja, Delaware wieħed, Maryland sitta, Virginia għaxra, North Carolina ħamsa, South Carolina ħamsa, u Georgia tlieta.

The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct.

When vacancies happen in the Representation from any State, the Executive Authority thereof shall issue Writs of Election to fill such Vacancies.

Sezzjoni. 3.	Section. 3.
Is-Senat ta 'l-Istati Uniti għandu jkun magħmul minn żewġ Senaturi minn kull Stat, magħżul mil-Leġislatura tiegħu, għal sitt Snin; u kull Senatur għandu jkollu Votazzjoni waħda.	The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislature thereof, for six Years; and each Senator shall have one Vote.
Immedjatament wara li jkunu nġabru Konsegwenza tal-ewwel Elezzjoni, għandhom jinqasmu bl-istess mod kif jista 'jkun fi tliet Klassijiet. Is-siġġijiet tas-Senaturi ta 'l-ewwel Klassi għandhom jitbattlu fl-Għeluq tat-tieni Sena, tat-tieni Klassi fl-Għeluq tar-raba' Sena, u tat-tielet Klassi fl-Għeluq tas-Sitt Sena, sabiex terz jista ' jiġi magħżul kull tieni Sena; u jekk Vacancies iseħħu permezz ta 'Riżenja, jew mod ieħor, matul id-Dħul tal-Leġislatura ta' kwalunkwe Stat, l-Eżekuttiv tiegħu jista 'jagħmel Ħatriet temporanji sal-Laqgħa li jmiss tal-Leġiżlatura, li mbagħad timla dawk il-Postijiet Vacancies.	Immediately after they shall be assembled in Consequence of the first Election, they shall be divided as equally as may be into three Classes. The Seats of the Senators of the first Class shall be vacated at the Expiration of the second Year, of the second Class at the Expiration of the fourth Year, and of the third Class at the Expiration of the sixth Year, so that one third may be chosen every second Year; and if Vacancies happen by Resignation, or otherwise, during the Recess of the Legislature of any State, the Executive thereof may make temporary Appointments until the next Meeting of the Legislature, which shall then fill such Vacancies.
Ebda Persuna ma għandha tkun Senatur li ma għalaqx l-Età ta 'tletin Sena, u li kien disa' Snin Ċittadin ta 'l-Istati Uniti, u li m'għandux, meta jkun elett, ikun abitant ta' dak l-Istat li għalih għandu jkun magħżul.	No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen.
Il-Viċi President ta 'l-Istati Uniti għandu jkun il-President tas-Senat, iżda m'għandux ikollu Vot, sakemm ma jinqasamx bl-istess mod .	The Vice President of the United States shall be President of the Senate, but shall have no Vote, unless they be equally divided.
Is-Senat għandu jwaqqaf Uffiċjali oħra tiegħu, u wkoll President pro tempore, fl-assenza tal-Viċi President, jew meta jeżerċita l-Uffiċċju tal-President ta 'l-Istati Uniti.	The Senate shall chuse their other Officers, and also a President pro tempore, in the Absence of the Vice President, or when he shall exercise the Office of President of the United States.
Is-Senat għandu jkollu l-poter uniku li jipprova l-Impeachments kollha. Meta jkunu seduti għal dak l-Għan, għandhom ikunu fuq Ġurament jew Dikjarazzjoni. Meta l-President ta 'l-Istati Uniti jiġi ppruvat, il-Prim Imħallef għandu jippresiedi: U l-ebda Persuna ma tkun ikkundannata mingħajr il-Qbil ta' żewġ terzi tal-Membri preżenti.	The Senate shall have the sole Power to try all Impeachments. When sitting for that Purpose, they shall be on Oath or Affirmation. When the President of the United States is tried, the Chief Justice shall preside: And no Person shall be convicted without the Concurrence of two thirds of the Members present.
Sentenza f'Każijiet ta 'Impeachment ma għandhiex testendi aktar milli għat-tneħħija mill-Uffiċċju, u skwalifika biex ikollhom u jgawdu kwalunkwe Uffiċċju ta' unur, Trust jew Qligħ taħt l-Istati Uniti: iżda l-Parti kkundannata għandha madankollu tkun responsabbli u soġġetta għal att ta 'akkuża, Prova, Sentenza u l-Puni , skond il-Liġi.	Judgment in Cases of Impeachment shall not extend further than to removal from Office, and disqualification to hold and enjoy any Office of honor, Trust or Profit under the United States: but the Party convicted shall nevertheless be liable and subject to Indictment, Trial, Judgment and Punishment, according to Law.
Sezzjoni. 4.	Section. 4.
It-Times, il-Postijiet u l-Manjieri li jsiru l-Elezzjonijiet għas-Senaturi u r-Rappreżentanti, għandhom ikunu preskritti f'kull Stat mil-Leġislatura tagħha; imma l-Kungress jista 'f'kull ħin bil-Liġi jagħmel jew ibiddel dawn ir-Regolamenti, ħlief fir-rigward tal-Postijiet li jfaħħru lis-Senaturi.	The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.
Il-Kungress għandu jgħaqqad mill-inqas darba kull sena, u dik il-Laqgħa għandha ssir fl-ewwel Tnejn ta 'Diċembru, sakemm ma għandhomx bil-Liġi jaħtru Jum differenti.	The Congress shall assemble at least once in every Year, and such Meeting shall be on the first Monday in December, unless they shall by Law appoint a different Day.
Sezzjoni. 5.	Section. 5.

Each House shall be the Judge of the Elections, Returns and Qualifications of its own Members, and a Majority of each shall constitute a Quorum to do Business; but a smaller Number may adjourn from day to day, and may be authorized to compel the Attendance of absent Members, in such Manner, and under such Penalties as each House may provide.
Kull Kamra tista 'tiddetermina r-Regoli ta' Proċedura tagħha, tikkastiga lill-Membri tagħha għal Mġieba diżordinata u, bil-Qbil ta 'żewġ terzi, tkeċċi Membru.	Each House may determine the Rules of its Proceedings, punish its Members for disorderly Behaviour, and, with the Concurrence of two thirds, expel a Member.
Kull Kamra għandha żżomm il-Ġurnal tal-Proċedimenti tagħha, u minn żmien għal żmien tippubblika l-istess, ħlief dawk il-Partijiet li jistgħu fil-Ġudizzju tagħhom jeħtieġu s-Segretezza; u l-Yeas u Nays tal-Membri ta 'kwalunkwe Kamra dwar kwalunkwe mistoqsija, fuq ix-Xewqa ta' ħamsa minn dawk Preżenti, għandhom jiddaħħlu fil-Ġurnal.	Each House shall keep a Journal of its Proceedings, and from time to time publish the same, excepting such Parts as may in their Judgment require Secrecy; and the Yeas and Nays of the Members of either House on any question shall, at the Desire of one fifth of those Present, be entered on the Journal.
L-ebda Kamra, matul is-Sessjoni tal-Kungress, m'għandha, mingħajr il-kunsens tal-ieħor, tiġi aġġornata għal aktar minn tlett ijiem, u lanqas għal kwalunkwe Post ieħor għajr dak li fih dawn iż-żewġ Kmamar għandhom ikunu seduti.	Neither House, during the Session of Congress, shall, without the Consent of the other, adjourn for more than three days, nor to any other Place than that in which the two Houses shall be sitting.
Sezzjoni. 6.	Section. 6.
Is-Senaturi u r-Rappreżentanti għandhom jirċievu Kumpens għas-Servizzi tagħhom, li għandu jkun aċċertat mil-Liġi, u mħallsa mit-Teżor ta 'l-Istati Uniti. Fil-Każijiet kollha, ħlief tradiment, kriminalità u ksur tal-paċi, għandhom ikunu privileġġati mill-Arrest waqt l-Attendenza tagħhom fis-Sessjoni tad-Djar rispettivi tagħhom, u jmorru lejn u jirritornaw mill-istess; u għal xi Diskors jew Dibattitu f'waħda mill-Kamra, m'għandhomx jiġu interrogati fi kwalunkwe Post ieħor.	The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States. They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
Ebda Senatur jew Rappreżentant ma għandu, matul iż-Żmien li jkun ġie elett, jinħatar f'ebda Uffiċċju Ċivili taħt l-Awtorità ta 'l-Istati Uniti, li jkun inħoloq, jew l-Emolumenti dwarhom għandu jkun inkrezzat matul dak iż-żmien; u l-ebda Persuna li jkollha xi Uffiċċju taħt l-Istati Uniti, m'għandha tkun Membru ta 'kwalunkwe House du ring il-Kontinwazzjoni tiegħu fl-Uffiċċju.	No Senator or Representative shall, during the Time for which he was elected, be appointed to any civil Office under the Authority of the United States, which shall have been created, or the Emoluments whereof shall have been encreased during such time; and no Person holding any Office under the United States, shall be a Member of either House during his Continuance in Office.
Sezzjoni. 7.	Section. 7.
Il-Abbozzi ta ’Liġi kollha biex jinġabru d-Dħul għandhom joriġinaw fil-Kamra tad-Deputati; imma s-Senat jista 'jipproponi jew jaqbel ma' Emendi bħal fuq Abbozzi oħra.	All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills.
Kull Abbozz li jkun għadda mill-Kamra tad-Deputati u s-Senat għandu, qabel ma ssir Liġi, jiġi ppreżentat lill-President ta 'l-Istati Uniti; Jekk japprova hu għandu jiffirmaha, imma jekk le huwa għandu jirritornaha, bl-Oġġezzjonijiet tiegħu għal dik id-Dar li minnha tkun oriġinat, li għandu jidħol fl-Oġġezzjonijiet ġenerali fil-Ġurnal tagħhom, u jipproċedi mill-ġdid. Jekk wara dik il-Konsiderazzjoni mill-ġdid żewġ terzi ta 'dik il-Kamra jaqblu li jgħaddu l-Abbozz ta' Liġi, din għandha tintbagħat , flimkien ma 'l-Oġġezzjonijiet, lid-Dar l-oħra, li bl-istess mod għandha terġa' tiġi kkunsidrata mill-ġdid, u jekk approvata minn żewġ terzi ta 'dik il-Kamra, hija għandha ssir Liġi. Iżda f'dawn il-Każijiet kollha, il-Voti taż-żewġ Kmamar għandhom ikunu determinati mill-yeas u mill-Ħdud, u l-Ismijiet tal-Persuni li jivvutaw favur u kontra l-Abbozz għandhom jiddaħħlu fil-Ġurnal ta 'kull Kamra rispettivament. Jekk xi Abbozz ta ’Liġi ma għandux jintbagħat lura mill-President fi żmien għaxart ijiem (il-Ħdud ħlief) wara li jkun ġie ppreżentat lilu, l-istess għandha tkun Liġi, bl-istess mod bħall-Manier li kieku kien iffirmaha, sakemm il-Kungress mill-Aġġornament tagħhom ma jħallix ir-Ritorn tagħha, f'liema Każ m'għandhiex tkun Liġi.	Every Bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, shall, before it become a Law, be presented to the President of the United States; If he approve he shall sign it, but if not he shall return it, with his Objections to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the Objections at large on their Journal, and proceed to reconsider it. If after such Reconsideration two thirds of that House shall agree to pass the Bill, it shall be sent, together with the Objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two thirds of that House, it shall become a Law. But in all such Cases the Votes of both Houses shall be determined by yeas and Nays, and the Names of the Persons voting for and against the Bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any Bill shall not be returned by the President within ten Days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented to him, the Same shall be a Law, in like Manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress by their Adjournment prevent its Return, in which Case it shall not be a Law.
Kull Ordni, Riżoluzzjoni, jew Vot li għaliha tista 'tkun meħtieġa l-Konkorrenza tas-Senat u l-Kamra tar-Rappreżentanti (ħlief fuq kwistjoni ta' Aġġornament) għandha tiġi ppreżentata lill-President ta 'l-Istati Uniti; u qabel l-Istess għandu jidħol fis-seħħ, għandhom ikunu approvati minnu, jew li ma jiġux approvati minnu, għandhom jerġgħu jiġu mqassma minn żewġ terzi tas-Senat u l-Kamra tad-Deputati, skond ir-Regoli u l-Limitazzjonijiet pr skribed fil-Każ ta 'Abbozz ta' Liġi.	Every Order, Resolution, or Vote to which the Concurrence of the Senate and House of Representatives may be necessary (except on a question of Adjournment) shall be presented to the President of the United States; and before the Same shall take Effect, shall be approved by him, or being disapproved by him, shall be repassed by two thirds of the Senate and House of Representatives, according to the Rules and Limitations prescribed in the Case of a Bill.
